James,

Thanks for pushing this release out.

Did the changes to bz2 make it in in the unarchive?  I didn't see the  
revisions in this list.

Also, I tried to figure out on branches/release_1_4 what's been  
merged in and there's no information in the log message on what  
revisions were merged from trunk.  The one place that svn isn't great  
is in merge tracking support; without an explicit log message or  
other tool to keep track of what's been merged, there's no way to  
tell what's been merged.  So I request we do the following:

1) Document the revisions merged into the branch in the log message.
2) Switch to using svnmerge.py for the next branch 1.5.  This will  
allow us to see what revisions have been merged.

Regards,
Blair
